I haven’t seen a single case where they’ve pointed to an actual arrest during a church service - or even one that would violate their earlier executive policy. The grandparent at a school drop off comes the closest.

All of them seek to enjoin it from happening based on a the stated change in policy… none have alleged that it has actuallly occured (and, to be fair, the administration says that it has not)
